We study systems with periodically oscillating parameters that can give way to complex periodic or nonperiodic orbits. Performing the long time limit, we can define ergodic averages such as Lyapunov exponents, where a negative maximal Lyapunov exponent corresponds to a stable periodic orbit. By this, extremely complicated periodic orbits composed of contracting and expanding phases appear in a natural way. Employing the technique of epsilon-uncertain points, we find that values of the control parameters supporting such periodic motion are densely embedded in a set of values for which the motion is chaotic. When a tiny amount of noise is coupled to the system, dynamics with positive and with negative nontrivial Lyapunov exponents are indistinguishable. We discuss two physical systems, an oscillatory flow inside a duct and a dripping faucet with variable water supply, where such a mechanism seems to be responsible for a complicated alternation of laminar and turbulent phases.

Qualitative analysis in mathematical modeling has become an important research area within the broad domain of nonlinear sciences. In the realm of qualitative analysis, the bifurcation method is one of the significant approaches for studying the structure of orbits in nonlinear dynamical systems. To apply the bifurcation method to the (2 + 1)-dimensional double-chain Deoxyribonucleic Acid system with beta derivative, the bifurcations of phase portraits and chaotic behaviors, combined with sensitivity and multi-stability analysis of this system, are examined.

We review recent progress regarding the double scaled Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model and other p-local quantum mechanical random Hamiltonians. These models exhibit an expansion using chord diagrams, which can be solved by combinatorial methods. We describe exact results in these models, including their spectrum, correlation functions, and Lyapunov exponent.

This paper examines the circumstances under which a one-degree-of-freedom approximate system can be employed to predict the dynamics of a cantilever beam comprising an elastic element with a significant mass and a concentrated mass embedded at its end, impacting a moving rigid base. A reference model of the system was constructed using the finite element method, and an approximate lowest-order model was proposed that could be useful in engineering practice for rapidly ascertaining the dynamics of the system, particularly for predicting both periodic and chaotic motions. The number of finite elements in the reference model was determined based on the calculated values of natural frequencies, which were found to correspond to the values of natural frequencies derived from the application of analytical formulas.

Background/objectives: Riding a bicycle is a foundational movement skill that can be acquired at an early age. The most common training bicycle has lateral training wheels (BTW). However, the balance bike (BB) has consistently been regarded as more efficient, as children require less time on this bike to successfully transition to a traditional bike (TB).

The studies conducted in this contribution are based on the analysis of the dynamics of a homogeneous network of five inertial neurons of the Hopfield type to which a unidirectional ring coupling topology is applied. The coupling is achieved by perturbing the next neuron's amplitude with a signal proportional to the previous one. The system consists of ten coupled ODEs, and the investigations carried out have allowed us to highlight several unusual and rarely related dynamics, hence the importance of emphasizing them.
